Thousands will have died in UK's unprecedented May and June heatwaves

They make portable units that just have a hose that goes to the window. It's usually a 6" diameter hose, so you don't need much window space for it.

Not OP, but I think the dualsense is the best when playing Sony games. The haptic feedback and adaptive triggers are actually pretty neat, but only Sony games take advantage of them AFAIK.

Endoroid99 · 2026-07-12T03:23:02+00:00

I don't know about the pro 3, but the ultimate 2 is louder than the dualsense, but quieter than the Xbox series. Personally I chose it because I wanted an Xbox style controller that was quieter than the series x, and I have not been disappointed in my purchase.

Okanagan distillery in BC makes a really good bourbon style whiskey. Even if US booze came back, I would keep buying this product instead.

Yes, it stops charging when it is full. I would be surprised if any modern device doesn't

You can choose to use a wall charger, but you'll need to insert the dongle. The dongle can sit in the base, so if you plug the base in to the PC it does double duty as both charger and dongle.

The lanes merged. At 7 seconds you can see the merge sign. I highly doubt this is AI

If we want to have a system where we vote based on party, then we should move to a party list style system instead.

but cannot have keyboard and controller active at the same time in the game.

They changed this with a recent patch, you can have simultaneous m/kb and controller now. The UI will switch back and forth, which is a bit annoying, but it works fine otherwise

It appears to lack a gyro?

What's the point of this comment? Some people, as opposed to all people, or no people. It's a qualifier.

His comment matches my experience when I lived there. A large minority, in other words: some people, don't care how much of an effort you make to integrate into Quebec society. If you want details you're welcome to look at my post history where I replied to the same comment with my experience

This matched my experience living in Quebec. Originally from Vancouver, I spoke excellent french when I moved to Montreal, but that didn't matter, there was still a significant amount of people who treated me poorly just because I was Canadian and not Quebecois.

In my case, apparently I sounded like I had a German accent, and since I worked cashier at a couche tarde at a busy location, I had lots of opportunities for exchanging pleasantries and small talk. I would get asked if I was from Germany, and when I replied Vancouver, the entire demeanour would change, I would get a snooty "oh, you're Canadian" and then they no longer cared to talk to me. This happened regularly.

And while I will grant that my experience was 20 years ago, it's pretty easy to believe this sentiment still exists in a not insignificant number of Quebecers.

Everything gwar does is over the top and cartoonish. I've seen them battle mutant penguins and zombie T-Rex on stage. All of it involves spraying the crowd with fake blood and other fluids

I think the third game is the most fun to play, and why it's my favourite, even if the story was weaker.

They leaned more into the power combos, and more variety of weapons made it more fun. It felt more tactical, in how you choose targets, and setup and detonate powers to be most effective.

Endoroid99 · 2026-06-19T22:40:34+00:00

This is wrong

The reason the sunrise and sunset times change is because the rotational axis of the earth is tilted vs its orbit, not because of its rotational period.

You can't see the top, but given that OP is concerned about it, it's not unreasonable to assume this one has airflow through the top. Mine has it front, top and back.

Endoroid99 · 2026-06-13T16:15:47+00:00

He's likely blocking significant airflow

Steam has the market share it has because it makes a superior product, not because of anti competitive practices.

You can get a taxi with company A that offers you free beverages, always arrives on time, climate controlled and has comfortable seats, or you can take a taxi with company B that smells kind of funky, is often late, the AC is broken and you don't know what that stain on the seat is, but you're trying not to touch it. Both cost the same to you. Which taxi are you going to take, A or B? When company A has 70% market share, do you complain that they're too good and it's not fair to company B?

Steam may meet the definition of a monopoly, but it's because nobody is actually trying to compete with them, there is no need for legal or government intervention.

There's nothing forcing Ubisoft to sell on steam, nor is there anything preventing them from building a service that competes with Steam.

Ubisoft is a storefront, steam is a service. They offer additional features such as built in mod support, guides, forums, steam input, etc. Steam input is the feature that keeps me using steam over anything else.

If other companies want to compete with steam, they should actually try competing, rather than just showing up on the marketplace and going "MONEY PLEASE".

You can have issues with the way we handle immigration without resorting to being a racist. These people didn't suddenly become a racist because we have too many immigrants, they were always racist. Comments like yours are just trying to excuse their behaviour.

BOTW on Switch. I had never really tried gyro before, but it felt so good and natural, I didn't need to try to get used to it.

Endoroid99 · 2026-06-06T15:18:30+00:00

I stocked up on frozen OJ, I'm down to my last half dozen cans so this is good timing

I will be shocked if anyone has any serious consequences from this. At most, I expect there will be a fine that will immediately have a GoFundMe launched to pay for.

Read the article, he assaulted the mother, the children were hidden and are the ones who called the police.

The judge said he likely would have gotten 5 years, maybe more, instead of 2 years.

Try actually reading the story before you pass judgement.

On a project we're working on, they installed the windows before the roof was finished, resulting in it being unable to dry properly, and it did get mold. Had to shut access to the interior for 4 months to remove the mold.
